Its like losing an old friend! I think the colour scheme is a bit bright and does interfere with the enjoyment of the photographs. I would not miss the random images section at all, especially once you have left the main gallery pages.

I have been offered money to take photographs, but I have always refused. Photography is is one thing in my life where I do just what I want and I intend to keep it that way. But surely there is no in between, you take money you are no longer an amateur.

This fairly common sight occurs when high thin clouds containing millions of tiny ice crystals cover much of the sky. Each ice crystal acts like a miniature lens. Because most of the crystals have a similar elongated hexagonal shape, light entering one crystal face and exiting through the opposing face refracts 22 degrees, which corresponds to the radius of the Moon Halo. A similar Sun Halo may be visible during the day.
